The best hotels in Saint-Raphaël

Saint-Raphaël has around forty hotels to suit all budgets and tastes. Are you looking for a seaside hotel with sea views, a spa in the heart of the Valescure pine forest, or a luxury hotel facing the red rocks of the Estérel? The city has it all.

The seaside resort in the Var department offers accommodation ranging from simple two-star hotels just a stone's throw from the beach to exclusive five-star hotels with heated swimming pools and Nuxe spa treatments. Prices vary from €60 per night in low season to over €400 for a suite in a luxury establishment.

As you'd expect on the French Riviera, the sea is often the number one criterion. But it would be a shame to stop there. The Golf Hotel de Valescure, the Moorish villa reminiscent of a period residence, Les Roches Rouges Beaumier with its contemporary design facing the Estérel... each accommodation offers a different experience.

In this guide, we have selected the best hotels in Saint-Raphaël, classifying them into four complementary categories:

• luxury hotels for a complete and exclusive experience,

• hotels in the city center for exploring Saint-Raphaël on foot,

• the best options offering good value for money,

• and finally hotels with a swimming pool or spa, which are particularly sought after in the Var climate.

Each address has been chosen for the consistency of its offering, its location, and the genuine experience it provides for travelers.
